  A couple chapter later on in the book, the court officials begin to prepare for the actual case in which Carl Lee will be indicted for the crime he has done. So Rufus Buckley,a district attorney, begins to describe to the jury what might be going on during the case and he tells them about the case. So as they begin to review the case in front of the jury, officer Ozzie Walls takes the witness stand. One of the jurors was skeptical to indict Carl Lee because the men he killed were his daughter's rapists. So to try and convince the rest of the jurors, he asks Ozzie a bunch of questions like if he had kids and if one of them was a  little girl which would ultimately lead up to his final question "Suppose she got raped and you had your hands on the man who did it.What would you do?" The officer deliberately tried not to answer the question not because he didn't want to them the but it was because if he did it would effect the grand jury decision and he thought it would be best if Carl was indicted for this case. Ozzie's opinion was that Carl should be indicted because it was necessary cause he shouldn't have taken this matter into his own hands. But to be honest, in my opinion I don't think justice would be served if the men were still alive because his daughter would have to relive that pain of knowing that they are still alive and out there able to try most likely do it again and destroy another family. later on the D.A.Buckley tries to keep the juror from influencing the rest but afterwards the juror puts the D.A. back in his place. But Buckley gets pissed off obviously for being put in the corner. But the juror threatens Buckley that he would complain to the judge about this dispute and have him indicted. I honestly enjoyed all the drama that was put in this chapter, it made it more interesting to read.
